Need some words of comfort

  • Thank you everyone for your kind words. I decided to have a bit of me time on Friday. Went to Mum's house had a lovely long hot bath. Caught up on a bit of trash TV then had a Chinese with my best friend. Feeling much better today.

    As soon as I've started to stress less the house feels like it is starting to come together. OH has been a bit more sympathetic and realised we need down time.He thought he was helping by being at the house every waking hour working but it just made me feel a bit guilty and wanting to do the same even though I physically and emotionally couldn't.

    So just to say a bit thank you. You guys have really helped me feel better about feeling as stressed as I do. G
  • So pleased to hear you're feeling brighter and less stressed. This is a difficult time and there will be highs and lows, but factoring in some downtime for you both, and some "me time" for yourself is really important. Best wishes.
